mommas teaching sign language

Help! What/how are you teaching lo? I sign "bath" to my dd, but that's it, I always forget to sign "milk" before I feed her, ect. What words are you focusing on? How often do you do it? Looking for any advice on how to teach my dd! Thanks!!

I do "momma" every time I pick her up.
"Daddy" when dad picks her up.
I do "milk" when I feed her.
I do "more" when I switch sides (or milk...depending).
I do "all done" when we are finished. And sometimes I do "food" when I have her solids.

The first (and most helpful) signs we taught our first baby were 'more' and 'all-done.' We tried teaching her 'milk,' but she learned to say it verbally before she could sign it. We'll do the same with our son.

I'm doing "milk", "more", "hurt", "eat", "change", and the parents. Did those with the niece and nephew. It was funny to watch him in his sleep signing milk as he's waking up. so adorable when he'd want some as soon as he got up.

I've done ASL (American sign language) with 3 of my baby's and will with this one too. Such a great source of communication between mom and babe. We have done same as pp as well as using baby signing time. They are great DVDs and all my kids picked up on the videos super quick. My older kids love to watch them now as well and know all the songs. My DS 22 mo signs and talks and I'm so glad we can communicate. I usually always know what he wants or needs because of ASL. GL
